Daylite Expandable 26+6 Travel Pack

A big factor for the tight squeeze with Air Canada is because all Canadian airlines (Air Canada, WestJet, Porter, and Flair) generally only allow 6 inches of depth for personal item, compared to the 8-9 inches allowed by US airlines. It's a massive difference. A fully packed (unexpanded) Osprey 26+6

I love the layout of my older version of the Osprey Daylite 26+6L. However, I find it so uncomfortable to carry because of the straps and not having a waist strap, which I find helpful for carrying 30L+. For me, it’s definitely one of those bags I use just for travel days, but not as an EDC during t

I went through this 2 years ago. You need to measure your torso length to find the backpack that will not strain your back. Google "how to measure your torso length for a backpack" and it'll give you directions. As a petite person, what worked for me was the Patagonia Black Hole Mini MLC 30L and the

The only way that the osprey is comfortable to take on a 10 mile walk would be if you modded it to take a hip belt. I love it for urban stuff and it fits in almost every sizer as a personal item but it’s not designed for walking. Im eu based so havent got direct experience with ULA stuff but that lo

I found the 26+6 super uncomfortable but enough people here like it that I suppose I'm an outlier. FWIW, my hiking pack is an Osprey Talon 22 and my carryon pack is a Fairview 40 (both of which are fine). YMMV

The one that worked? the Nomad Lane Bento Bag Backpack I just got.

I feel like “the load capacity relative to size of an Osprey 26+6” and “comfortable load carrying for long walking distances” is one of those unicorn combinations I keep seeing people ask for on here but that unfortunately seems somewhat mutually exclusive. I would love to be proven wrong though, an

Wow, the old version is my main and favorite travel bag, and this new version changes everything I love about it. I love having the big empty sack for a bag that I can place my own preferred cubes and bags into. I hate laptop pockets because I never use it so I love the removable one here. I also fi

Yeah, I don't want to knock the Osprey Daylite 26+6. It's my current onebag. But it's claimed 6" (16cm) depth is more like 7.5" (19cm) when packed. To keep it at 7", I need to pack without using compression cubes.

I recently bought the Osprey (edit: the Daylite, not the Transporter) 26+6 and Tomtoc T66 Liteway (28L) to compare as personal item bags. The Osprey is the only one I brought on trips — first a family car trip, then on a flight for a work trip.On the family trip I had no complaints. But on the work
